Both excellent Mark, you deserved to win with those two.

Very nice on both accounts Mark!  My first and thrid most favorite aircraft!

WARNING JMN MOMENT

FYI A-4Cs never had outboard pylons.  Some export versions of the C did though.

Great modelling Mark tho I personally don't have the required patience to put all those decals on.

Great job, you really deserve the price.....

Don´t mind about the outboard pylons, that will make it a real What If  ;)   :lol:

BTW, question, the Bronco WAS used by the USAF? Just wondering, I thaught that was an Army/Marines plane, or I´m wrong? :huh:

cheers :cheers:

Congrats on the wins, and those are two very nice birds!  I'd have to say that's a hell of a job on the decals. :cheers:

Yes, the USAF used the Bronco during Viet Nam but mainly as a FAC bird.  The USMC/USN used it in the light strile role as designed. The USMC was the primary user of the OV-10.  Only one Navy squadron exsisted that used the OV-10 VAL-4 Black Ponies, the only squadron ever commissioned and decommissioned on foreign soil (Viet Nam)

Hope that answers your question.  Mark
